Text 1: Historical overview of the Portuguese emigrati on Despite the absence of sound statistical data on Portuguese emigration to the century. XIX, it is clear that the genesis of the emigration phenomenon dates b ack to the period of the Discoveries. Although some authors such as Eduardo Lour enço (1), emphasizing that the massive outflows of Portuguese population registe red during the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, either to India or to Brazil e migration flows are not true, the truth is that the historical context which lau nched the Portuguese overseas defined to some extent, the preferred destinations of the first wave of emigration. The historical approach of the Portuguese emig ration necessarily includes the evaluation of two distinct movements - the movem ent in ocean and intra-European. The movement is the oldest ocean and dominated throughout the nineteenth century, addressing mainly to Brazil. Throughout the t wentieth century, apart from Brazil, USA, Canada,Venezuela and South Africa are among the more popular destinations within this chain.

One thing is certain, the Portuguese have always felt that impulse, proof is the adventure of overseas expansion. The influence of Portuguese culture is vast an d immediate. If emigration has always marked our history, immigration also gets you to do. And get him to do from the last quarter of the twentieth century. The reasons for this phenomenon are mostly of economic or political bias. A good ex ample is the influx of immigrants from former Portuguese colonies and so-called Eastern Bloc countries.

They adapt, receiving much of the host country, but also enrich us with the re lease of new life forms. Criteria of Evidence: Culture: I can act comprising the causes economic, political and cultural migration of populations and recognizin g the importance of multiculturalism to the diversity of cultural offerings. Wor k Proposal: Based on the knowledge he has of the reality of immigration, especia lly across different media, reflecting the cultural influences brought about by our immigrants (Brazilians, Moldovans, Romanians, etc..) Present in many aspects of day- to-day and who have largely contributed to its discovery, specifically in musical differences, culinary, sports and cinema, etc..

Proposed W ork: From the knowledge of reality that has Portuguese language, namely its dive rsity, different from speaker to speaker, do a little reflection on some words t hat although enunciating the same reality is to write and pronounce more or less distinct from how they use the Portuguese. For example: butcher, bus ... (Eng.) , has as synonyms butchers and bus (Latin).

Communication: I can act in the global world, given that language is an essential element of the functioning of societies and relat ions between people of different social and cultural origins, and an undeniable factor of integration. Work Proposal: Since language is a factor of integration, it is easy to understand why many Brazilians, Cape Verde, Guinea Bissau, East T imor and guineensenes ... have chosen Portugal as destination. Thus, from the kn owledge they have of the countries where Portuguese is spoken, explore the dynam ics that it has, as a living language, through its study on indigenous universit ies, in primary schools and in cultural activities, giving evidence that it is a live and dynamic and is constantly evolving. http://www.myspace.com/lusofoniaare volucao http://cidadania-e-profissionalidade.blogspot.com/2008/10/ng4-dr3-poltic as-pblicas.html If we analyze with some precision the history of Portugal, we fa ced from the first moment with the reality of emigration. After the reconquest f rom the Moors and the physical establishment of borders, the Portuguese were lau nched in overseas expansion.

Centuries later, with the loss of former colonies, the Portuguese emig ration redirects itself and spreads to new horizons. And since then, Central Eur ope (France, Belgium, Luxembourg, Switzerland and Germany) and North America (Ca nada and USA) have established themselves as new points of reference for the Por tuguese emigration. However, from the last decade of the century. XX, there is a real investment in migratory routes. Portugal, a country of emigrants par excel lence, sets up, paradoxically, as a privileged port for immigration: first from the former colonies and, later, of Eastern European countries. Faced with the ph enomenon of immigration and the decline of jobs, corresponding to the slowdown i n economic growth, European and world began to appear a certain social instabili ty, coupled with the bias towards the immigrant. As unjustifiable and deplorable , if it meets the past history of our country and the contribution that they hav e given the Portuguese economic development. See News / debate on Youtube. Work proposal: Given the just mentioned and news / discussion we suggest that intenti onally enter, understand and reflect on public policy relating to the reception of immigrants in Portugal.

The approximately 4,9 million citizens Portuguese or of Portuguese origin living abroad are the proof of the importance that immigrat ion has had and continues to play for Portugal. Over the centuries, but especial ly in the twentieth century, emigration movements have undergone significant cha nges in volume and destinations, reflecting the state of country's development a nd evolution of the international job market. Emigration In the early twentieth century and until 1914, the emigration to Brazil was esse ntially very large, with a record of only 195 000 immigrants from 1911 to 1913. In subsequent years, as a result of two world wars and the severe economic crisi s in 30 years, emigration suffer further drop. It is precisely between the 30s a nd mid 40s which is recorded the lowest volume of emigrants: 7000 Annual output in the period 1939/1945, was the end of phase transoceanic that characterized th e first half of the twentieth century, with a predominance of emigration to Amer ican continent and especially to Brazil, but soon after, with 26 000 annual outp ut between 1946 and 1955, begins a new phase which will run until mid-70s.

Continue reading The return Parallel to the phenomenon of emigration, deserves note highlighted another, muc h less noticed in the scientific community and in Portuguese society in general but no less important: the return of Portuguese emigrants from foreign countries . The little attention it has received is due to three essential characteristics . Firstly, the fact that a phenomenon practically continuous in time and space, which mainly results from individual and family decisions, although it may also be related to political phenomena, legislative, economic or social. Second, beca use the return has occurred for virtually the entire national territory, althoug h the large cities have significant importance. Finally, because the returnees, while inducing change, particularly in poorer rural areas of the interior, exert pressure on the weak labor market and production structure, a result of their f ear of investing and taking risks, so engaged with such often the small business es on their own. The official numbers of returning emigrants, established by the decennial censuses of population, the National Statistics Institute (INE) indic ate that only the periods 1976/81, 1986/91 and 1996/2001 reached more than 295,0 00 individuals to the national territory . Extrapolating these figures it is con cluded that in just one quarter of a century (1976/2001), will perhaps have retu rned nearly 600 000 individuals, which is considerable given the demographic dim ension of the country.

And in this respect destacaramse first those from Af rican countries whose official language is Portuguese, after those of Brazil and , more recently, from countries of Eastern Europe, which quickly came to constit ute the most numerous group of foreigners to reside in Portugal. Consider some n umbers. According to official statistics of the Foreigners and Borders Service ( SEF), in 1975, resided in the country less than 32 000 foreigners, many who neve r stopped to increase, reaching 223,600 in 1995 and the end of 2001.

For that reason, the European expansion, and its civilization was due both to th e historical management of the Portuguese. In recent years, however, Portugal ha s become both an immigration country, destination, and the defendant sought by m any and varied people. Someone called this shift the return of the caravels. We always had foreign minorities among us, but never with the expression and charac teristics of this immigration. They come from different continents, belong to va rious races and ethnicities, are carriers of many different cultures, profess di fferent religious beliefs, speak a vast plurality of languages. Phenomenon of ep isodic, almost imperceptible, immigration began to flow and striking feature of our collective experience, giving the Portuguese a multicultural society that di d not know before. Page 11 in: http://www.acime.gov.pt/docs/Publicacoes/Actas_fi nal.pdf Identity processes and managing diversity Jorge Vala Department of Social and Organizational Psychology, ISCTE Various studies conducted in recent years show that the majority of EU citizens consider that immigrants, particularly those who are seen as belonging to other races, religions or cultures should not be discriminated against and have the sa me rights as the natives of the countries where they work. For example, data fro m the European Social Survey (ESS) from 2002 indicate that 68% of EU citizens cl aim that immigrants should have the same rights that citizens of host countries.

Thus, and in accordance wi th the ESS, about 70% of Europeans and an equal percentage of Portuguese, believ es that immigrants contribute to increased crime and insecurity. Contrary to the dominant discourse, representing Portugal as a country tolerant, open, mostly a nti-discrimination attitudes, other data from this same study shows that our cou ntry is also traversed by prejudiced attitudes and beliefs that legitimize the d iscriminatory conduct that occurs in life everyday or institutional contexts. Pa ge 47 [http://www.acime.gov.pt/docs/Publicacoes/Actas_final.pdf] Commentary on the intervention of Jorge Vala Verónica Policarpo Portuguese Catholic University - Faculty of Humanities The media A fifth comment relates to the role of media in processes of ethnicization we he ard here today. In his book "The objectivity in social science," Gunnar Myrdal w arned us, back in 1976, to the important role of media in changing values, the d isclosure of information that can correct the false beliefs and push individuals to transform, or even abandon, the values have been forgotten. This importance is now even more visible in a society where mass media have become virtually the only source of information for most people. We therefore need to think about th e importance of media in processes of ethnicization or as vectors of racism, or as vectors of explicit anti-racism (Wieviorka, 2002) 3. Thus, it is important to note that the media convey a speech which, though it is on minorities, is produ ced by majorities (eg, journalists, mostly white, middle-class, integrated socia lly and professionally, etc.. ) and for the majority. To what extent these Published 7/20/2008 by adult / trainee - Cont @ ct page: 15/28 discourses contribute to the subtle processes of ethnicization that we have been talking about? An exploratory study in which I had the opportunity to participa te on the ethnic and gender discrimination in the Portuguese media has, for exam ple, that in 2000 the media in Portugal contributed decisively to a negative ima ge of ethnic minorities, for example associating the recurrent crime and violenc e. Page 67 in http://www.acime.gov.pt/docs/Publicacoes/Actas_final.pdf Immigration and Development João César das Neves Faculty of Economics and Business Catholic University The problem of migration is much older than the development. If we take the latt er in its strict sense, characterized by the sustained rise in living standards of the national population,only found in clear after the call "industrial revol ution", then the development has just over 250 years. Rather, migration is a phe nomenon inherent in the nature and history of the world. Relating the two concep ts, find a number of aspects of the recent dynamics of the global economy that, somehow, are close to the migratory phenomenon. It is in some aspects of this br ief text is centered. Page 73 Portugal The Portuguese case is without any doubt one of the most interesting cases in world history of migration. The various sta ges of its longstanding history bear witness to their abnormality. Even a cursor y inspection of the evolution allows to express the great peculiarity of our beh avior. • The population of Portugal Published 7/20/2008 by adult / trainee - Cont @ ct page: 16/28 The first striking element is the instability of large numbers of Portuguese pop ulation considered at various times. The review should make from 1415, when the conquest of Ceuta, because this is the moment that ends the identity between Por tugal and the Lusitania. The previous population movement, especially related to the Christian reconquest, had always been limited to the sphere lusitana.Página 77 This type of analysis can be profitably further developed in the most recent period, where the figure clearly shows the periods of greatest population movem ent. So we can say that in the last century and a half, there are four seasons c ould be called "hyper-emigration", each with about 10 years. They are: • the decade from 1888 to 1898, • the period since 1905 until the outbreak of Wo rld War I in 1914 • what will the end of this until the beginning of great depre ssion in 1929 • and finally, the decade from 1963 to 1973. As the table shows, here too there is a surprising regularity since the first an d third period saw rates around the 6o/oo, while the other two hover around 8.5% . Published 7/20/2008 by adult / trainee - Cont @ ct page: 17/28 If we consider the economic characteristics of these four periods, in an attempt to find any relationship between the phenomenon of development and the episodes of high emigration, once again our efforts come up against diversity. The table shows that very diversity. In fact, the first two periods of high emigration ra te fell during times of recession (the first includes the severe crisis of 1889- 1890 and 1893-1894, and the second follows immediately to the crisis of 1903-190 4 and includes the beginning of the crisis 1913-1918). But the next two are of s trong growth, with the last interval with even greater momentum in the Portugues e product in the twentieth century. Considering the financial side, only the thi rd period showed a strong nominal instability, with high inflation and strong fi scal crisis. The three others unfold in relative or even strong macroeconomic st ability. Thus, the national emigration, at least in periods of greater intensity , follows no clear economic rule. More a warning to the refusal of simplistic an swers. Page 80 Conclusions The relationship between development and migration are vast and comp lex. In this brief study we attempted to sketch a picture of these relationships , either from a historical point of view, either empirical or theoretical. It be came very clear the scale of the phenomenon of movements of populations. The inf ormation gathered and many others that could be adduced seem to converge in a fu ndamental conclusion. The migration is in general a rational reaction to economi c conditions and is therefore generally beneficial for all areas involved. Exhau st valve and variable adjustment, it is linked to major developmental successes.

In round numbers, in 1960 the foreign population with legal residence was only 0.3%. In 1980 this percentage shall be 0.5% in 2005 and already there is a significant strengthenin g of its numerical strength to 4.0% (measured as a percentage of the estimated r esident population for the NSA in 2005). Despite the growing number of immigrant s in recent years, Portugal is far from being one of European countries with the highest percentage of immigrants, particularly if we compare ourselves with cou ntries in Northern Europe. In 2004, not considering the specific case of Luxembo urg with about 39% of immigrants (most of whom are from Portugal), European coun tries with the highest percentage of immigrants in its territory were Switzerlan d (20.2%), Austria (September 5%), Germany (8.9%), and Belgium (8.4%). Note also that Portugal is among the countries that annually receives fewer immigrants. A ccording to OECD data, in 2004 foreign arrivals to Portugal represented only 0.1 2% of its total population. Moreover, this increase in immigration is due to a p eriod of great economic growth in Portugal in the second half of the 90s.

Castles, 2000: 273). But it was Europe, first by Discoveries and , later, with the colonization of their territories, who gave a great impetus to the development of migration flows. Papademetriou (2001), analyzing the recent pattern of international migration, found Published 7/20/2008 by adult / trainee - Cont @ ct page: 22/28 that the pace of change is continuous, but not too sharp, the geographic distrib ution has remained stable, the impact in terms of population size is reduced, bu t the magnitude is more significant in terms of growth and population distributi on and, finally, not less important, while the existing pattern of international migration in Europe, North America and Oceania is an inter-regional cooperation in Asia and Africa is of intra-regional distribution. International migration a re, according to Castles (2000), part of the globalization process. However, unl ike the liberalization of capital flows and goods, migration is regularly seen a s "potential threats to sovereignty and national identity and many governments a nd political movements seeking to restrain them" (cf. Castles, 2000: 271). What are the determinants of migration? Whether in countries of origin or destination , may be referred to the "conditions of the labor market, laws and political [.. .] information and information flows, [...] the effects of chain migration, budg etary constraints (which may influence the ability of potential migrants to pay transportation costs), and almost everything that affects the desire to live / w ork in the destination, as opposed to country of origin, from ethnic or politica l violence to the climate "( cf. Glover et al. 2001: 3). These are just some of the factors to be considered in the study of the causes of migration flows.
